Abstract

Jonckheere's test is a frequently used nonparametric trend test for the evaluation of preclinical studies and clinical dose-finding trials. In this paper, a modification of Jonckheere's test is proposed. If the exact permutation distribution is used for inference, the modified test can fill out the level of the type I error in a much more complete way and is substantially more powerful than the common Jonckheere test. If the asymptotic normality is used for inference, the modified test is slightly more powerful. In addition, a maximum test is investigated which is more robust concerning an a priori unknown dose-response shape. The robustness is advantageous, especially in a closed testing procedure. The different tests are applied to two example data sets.

In this paper, a modification of Jonckheere's test is proposed.

If the asymptotic normality is used for inference, the modified test is slightly more powerful.
